Smart Growth

Definition of Smart Growth as it relates to Real Estate, Urban Planning

Smart growth is an urban planning and development approach that aims to create sustainable, livable, and prosperous communities by efficiently using land and infrastructure, preserving open spaces and the environment, promoting equitable access to opportunities, and fostering economic vitality. It emphasizes compact, mixed-use, walkable, and transit-oriented development patterns, as well as community engagement, participatory decision-making, and evidence-based policymaking. Smart growth seeks to enhance the quality of life for all residents, regardless of their income, race, or age, by providing them with affordable housing, convenient transportation options, access to jobs, education, recreation, and services, and a healthy and attractive environment. By doing so, smart growth contributes to the sustainability, resilience, and competitiveness of cities, regions, and nations, as well as their social, economic, and environmental well-being.
